Re: Have you ever seen anyone you know on Google Maps?

Yes, my brother in law who lives in a tiny Dorset hamlet, and who just happened to be putting out his bin as the camera went past..

We showed the image of the MIL to her, standing at the bus stop, which has now been replaced with a newer image.

When the car came into our little estate, a neighbour was just going out with her children.

Has anyone else seen people they know?
Yes a friends OH was mowing their front lawn. Mentioned it to my friend & she knew exactly when it was taken, as she usually mowed their lawns.

TWo people!

First was my older brother who is an incredibly private person and doesn't like people knowing his business. He lives in a very small village and there he is close up, leaving his car and walking into his house.

The second was my neighbours husband, up a ladder painting his window frames.

Re: Have you ever seen anyone you know on Google Maps?

The first time I looked at my own house on GoogleMaps, I got a shock to see a strange man just walking out of my front door!
Then I moved the view round a bit and saw the carpet fitters van a bit further along the street - phew!

I am still standing in my front garden in Dorset. I moved away seven years ago. Very odd feeling.

Re: Have you ever seen anyone you know on Google Maps?

Yes I saw the wife on the local maps twice in two different places, and guess what? She was yapping to other women both times. Didn’t deter her though she’s still yapping.

Re: Have you ever seen anyone you know on Google Maps?

Looked again at where my late Mothers bungalow was, we sold it after she died. It's still an old pic as her Swan planters are still each side of the front door. Looked at the date, it was taken in 2009. Obviously they don't up date Street View, the map view says this year, our house is the same original pic too.
